CHAPTER XXI.

Thanks to my darling's devotion, t.
her unWcaried after tons, to her fore
sight and care of me, | was strong
enough to leave my cabin on the third
day following my restoration to con.
seriousness
During that time many inquiries
were made after my health by the pas.
ssengers. and Mary told me that the
greatest curiosity prevailed fore and
aft to see me. So misfortune had made
a little ephemeral hero of me. and this,
perhaps, was one stroke of compensa-
ton which l should have been very
willing to dispense with.
The second officer of the ship, c man
-of about my height and build, had
very kindly placed his wardrobe at my
disposal, but all that / had chosen to
borrow from him was some linen,
which. indeed, stood greatly in need
of; but my clothes. though rather the
worse for saltwater, were, in my opin-
ion, quite good enough for me TO wear
yuntil should be able to buy new out
fit ashore.
At twelve o'clock, then, on the third
day, rose and leisurely dressed N.Y.
self, and then sat waiting for Mary,
whose arm to lean on preferred to any
~one's else.
She came to the cabin presently, and
when she entered l folded her in my
arms with so deep feeling of happi-
mess and love and gratitude in me that
i had no words to speak to her.
1t was when l released her that she
said: ''Since God has heard our pray
sers. dearest, and mercifully preserved
us from death, shall we thank Him,
now that we are together, and say one
prayer for my dear father, who. l firm
-ly believe, looks down upon us and has
still the power to bless us?"
took her hand, and we knelt to-
Tgether, and, frst thanking her for re-
lminding me of my bounden duty,
Lifted up my heart to Almighty God.
Father of all men, who had guarded us
amid our perils, who had brought us to
rthe knowledge and love of Him and of
each other by the lesson of hard trials
and sorrowful privation.
When Iquitted the cabin, supported
by Mary, 1 found myself in very spa
Ecious saloon, most handsomely fur
.nished and decorated, and striking me
more by the contrast is offered to the
plain and small interior of the Grosye-
1or's cabin.

| an Organization of Colored Men PromuI-

| ence.
| There is no more reason for the
organization of o colored mans party
in this country than for the organiza-
ton of party of blondes or one of
gray boards. Yet, if by this means the
,olored people of the South can grad
aally be brought into the exercise of
their political rights in an intelligent
manner, and can be made to under
stand the full dignity of the freedom
and citizenship which were conferred
upon them, perhaps the movement
which an educated black of Richmond,
Va, has started, will not be without
support in places where, under
other circumstances, it would be Wig
| orously cOmbated. As outlined, the
aim of the Virginia gettlem an is to
form in every pOpulous commu-
nifty an organization of the more
progressive negroes for social and
political purposes. The political
aspects of the organization are to be
kept in the background for a time, and
an effort is to be made to improve the
condition of the race before its active
participation in political matters will
be recommended. This may or may
not be the proper way to begin the ele-
walton of the race, but the idea at the
bottom of the movement is a correct
one. The organization starts out with
the understanding that the negro does
not belong to any one party; that I'M
der the existing political divisions the
intelligent voter of the black race, as
well as the intelligent voter of the
white race, must sometimes use his in
dependence to check evil tendencies in
both parties, and can never be said to
have decided intelligently as to his
duty until he has freed himself of the
tyranny of the party idolatry.
In the language of the author of the
new movement, Mr. Cleyeland's Adj
ministration has put more real value
on the negro's citizenship than all the
preceding Administrations since the
war" Under Grant the negro was
victimized by the carpet-bagger, who
robbed and deluded him and his white
associates as well, making sport of the
liberties of both by incessant appeals
to the military. Under Hayes the
negro was turned over to the tender
mercies of the whites on trade.
Under Arthur no move was made to
lift the black man from the position in
which he was found, and the recOgni-
ton which he received at the capital
was about on par with that extended
to Indians untaxed. Mr.. Cleveland
has by word and deed undertaken to
deal with the enfranchised race as citi-
zens on an equality with all other
citizens. Many of them have been APP
pointed to office, some of them to places
of Importance, and the encouragement
thus extended has not been without its
effects upon the more advanced MEM
bers of the race everywhere. If the
Eirginian can organize even a min
ority of the blacks, and actuate them
with a correct appreciation of their
rights and duties as citizens, he will
have accomplished work which will
be of the greatest value not only to
them but to the whites, even if it shall
be done under the form of colored
mans party. Chicago Herald.

MARTYRS OF SCIENCE.
Progress OF Every Description First BE

Progress OF Every Description First Net
with Ridicule. Then Persecution.
Calico, Columbus. Jenner and the
many authors who have had their first
manuscripts returned, are among those
of the worlds benefactors whose early
dreams met with ridicule. A book
called The Martyrs of Science" shows
what true men have suffered in the
way of human progress. There is
something in the popular mind that
clingS to tradition and custom, and
holds the progressive to be impossible,
and therefore ridiculous. Progress
first meets with rinicule, then persecu-
ton. A recent number of the South
and Vest has several illustrations 10
the point, followed by some good
thoughts.
When the first train made its trip
over George Stephenson's railroad, be-
tween Liverpool and Manchester, all
the stage companies held indignation
meetings. 1t was certain, to many
people, that teamsters would starve,
and the market for horses be ruined
When the first reaper was put to
work in an English wheat-ield, the
excited siekle-reapers captured and
burnt it.
When the self-binders were first in
troduced into Western Illinois, the
harvest-hands burnt MANY, and we
were compelled to guard the machines
with shot-guns.
Yet we now know that all these
things are FIR the good of all. laboring
people not excepted. Every labor-sav-
ing machine is also a laborer-saving
machine. The working-man is the
chief consumer of the products OF
work; this is fact he should never
forget, and because of it he lives much
better than his father lived.
Through the ages
One increasing purpose runs;
And the thoughts of men are widened
By the process of the suns"
1t is equally true that our capabilities.
comforts and advantages are thus
broadened and increased. The luxuries
of one generation are the comforts Of
